Amalfi Coast

After you met your chauffeur at your accommodation he gives you a briefing in order to let you know what you will do during your journey along the Amalfi Coast.

Generally first stop is Positano, many breaks with stories and descriptions are set along the road as a view of Li Galli islands and other panoramic places where to enjoy a bird-eye view of Positano.

Then your driver will lead you to the lowest place accessible by car and from there you will start your pleasant stroll downhill along a pedestrian area where you walk by many traditional shops.

Positano is famous for shopping and the particular geographical conformation.

The end of your walk is the beach after an amazing experience among clothes, ceramics and local products.

By the beach and looking behind of you there is the most beautiful view of Positano with its houses built along the steep cliff, a colorful scenery with many small constructions.

Then the way to reach back your driver to the parking area is the same you already did.

The guided tour continues along the way to Amalfi, crossing different territories as Praiano, Furore and Conca dei Marini, with many other breaks along the road in order to admire the best spots and many other curiosities.

In accord with your driver you set the next stop which can be Amalfi or Ravello.

Let’s consider Amalfi as your second stop where to enjoy of free time to explore the biggest town of our territory with a proper port area.

Here you can visit the Cathedral of St. Andrew as well as you can discover several proofs of the ancient Maritime Republic activity, without to ignore the surrounding panorama made by houses and convents built along the cliffs admiring the outstanding technics which are used for the agriculture.

Amalfi can be also an appropriated location for your lunch and so you can also consult your driver for some good recommendations.

Continuing your journey you drive to Ravello, all the way up the hill, up to about 400 mts above the sea level.

This town is known for its peaceful environment and its breathtaking views.

The main square is a pedestrian area where you can relax as well as you can decide to explore the two famous villas: Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone.

The first is by the main square and it offers great views by its terrace overlooking Minori and Maiori (other town of the Amalfi Coast) which is also used for organizing music concerts during the season of Ravello Music Festival. Villa Cimbrone is a little farer than Villa Rufolo and so it takes longer to get there.

It is known for its Infinity Terrace and the amazing gardens which often became wedding scenes for couples coming from all over the world.

In Ravello we also find the Auditorium which was built to better appreciate the music sound.

After visited Ravello you can meet again your chauffeur for the return to Sorrento and during the drive you can fix better all the information you grabbed during your journey on the Amalfi Coast.

Maybe I didn’t talk at all about shopping, beaches and food but these are conditions which is better you check at the moment when here and your chauffeur will be glad to share his knowledge, experience and local friendship with you.
